Fall Story Times
Enjoy stories, craft, song, and other fun!
Join us for in-person Story Time at the Decatur Public Library! We'll share fun stories around a theme, songs, and a craft or activity. Story Time meets in the Children's Section of the library on the second floor.
Story time is geared to preschoolers 3-5 years old. Other siblings are welcome. Day care providers are also welcome to bring their preschoolers. (If you're a day care provider or babysitter and want to bring a group of kids, call us at 217-424-2900 ext. 5 to let us know in advance so we'll be sure to have enough craft supplies.)
BabyTALK Time meets at the same time as the Thursday story times in the Children's Auditorium for those 3 and under with a caregiver.
The dates are:
- Thursday, September 26, 10 a.m. -- A musical story time, accompanied by musicians from our friends at Millikin University
- Saturday, October 19, 11 a.m. -- Bilingual Story Time! Stories and activities in both English and Spanish/¡Hora de Cuentos Bilingüe! Cuentos y actividades en inglés y español
- Thursday, October 31, 10 a.m. -- Halloween story time! You are welcome to come in costume, and after Story Time we'll be trick-or-treating in the library!
- Thursday, December 5, 10 a.m. -- Christmas stories & craft!
No registration required -- just come and join in the fun!
And you can join us EVERY Monday morning at 10 a.m. from anywhere via Zoom for Story Time Live! Our staff will share 20 minutes of fun picture book stories. Register here to receive the Zoom link via email: Story Time Live!
